A couple of photos for you to enjoy from my hike on New Year's Day 2012. There is no trail up to this viewpoint, you just have to know how to make your way through the wilderness and up the mountainside approximately 1500 vertical feet in 1.5 miles.

This photo of Lake Tahoe and the neck of Crystal Bay jutting out into the lake was taken from the area below The Tahoe Rim Trail going towards Rifle Peak.

Looking in the opposite direction you get this fabulous view of Rose Knob Peak.
